Pin Failure Mode Analysis (Pin FMA)

This section provides a failure mode analysis (FMA) for the pins of the ADS130B02-Q1. The failure modes covered in this document include the typical pin-by-pin failure scenarios:

  • Pin short-circuited to ground (see Table 4-2)
  • Pin open-circuited (see Table 4-3)
  • Pin short-circuited to an adjacent pin (see Table 4-4)
  • Pin short-circuited to supply (see Table 4-5)

Table 4-2 through Table 4-5 also indicate how these pin conditions can affect the device as per the failure effects classification in Table 4-1.

Table 4-1 TI Classification of Failure Effects
Class Failure Effects
A Potential device damage that affects functionality.
B No device damage, but loss of functionality.
C No device damage, but performance degradation.
D No device damage, no impact to functionality or performance.

Figure 4-1 shows the ADS130B02-Q1 pin diagram. For a detailed description of the device pins see the Pin Configuration and Functions section in the ADS130B02-Q1 data sheet.

Figure 4-1 Pin Diagram

Following are the assumptions of use and the device configuration assumed for the pin FMA in this section:

  • AVDD and DVDD use the same 3.3-V supply voltage.
  • Short circuit to supply means short to AVDD = DVDD.
  • Short circuit to ground means short to AGND = DGND.
  • Differential RC filters on every ADC channel.
    Series resistors are sized to limit the input currents into the analog inputs to <10 mA in all circumstances (for example, in case the device is unpowered and the input signal is applied).
  • External pulldown resistor (≥1 kΩ) on CLKIN to DGND in case the device is configured for use with the internal oscillator.
  • NC pins are left unconnected.
  • The device is the only peripheral on the SPI bus.
